Hello and thanks for stopping by! My name is Angela. I am a scientist, wife, cat-mom, and fitness enthusiast. This page is my personal blog, and you will find a range of topics, centered around healthy living. Why “The Chicken Scoop”? Well, when I started this blog, we had just gotten a small flock of chickens and the name just stuck! I hope you enjoy your visit!

It’s the weekend! Well, for me anyway. Today is a Friday class schedule at school and I don’t have classes on Fridays so Woohoo! The plans for the next 5 days are lots and lots of homework and lots of housework. I also plan on hitting the gym a lot with Rob. Other than that, we have nothing to do! No Thanksgiving dinner plans either.

I just feel like babbling today so I’m just going to share the pictures I’ve taken all week (bonus recipe is at the bottom!)

First, our garden is doing great! Check out those squash plants!! They aren’t growing up the fence like we wanted by the watermelon are so I guess they are spacing themselves out accordingly? I am really excited how
